Investment Agreement financial

"Disposition pursuant to the Investment Agreement by and between the Reporting Person and the Issuer"

A written contract between an investor and a company that lays out the exact terms of an investment — how much money is provided, what the investor receives in return, and the rights and obligations of each side. It matters to investors because it sets the rules for ownership, control, payout and exit, and protections against future changes; think of it like a lease or recipe that tells everyone what to expect and how disputes or changes will be handled.
